Molly

This is Molly everyone. She's the late companion to one of my sisters. She was well loved and had a few quirks you might say. That bent ear for starters! She's a German Sheppard and didn't live to her full life expectancy. Very difficult loss for my family to process. I did this painting as a tribute to Molly and i certainly hope it's well received. 18"x24"x1 1/2" acrylic on canvas.

New Technique for Me

This piece is finally completed! Framed beautifully too I might add. 16"x20" on wood, oil and cold wax medium. Jim did the frame. What a pro!
 While I was on an art trip this past summer to Asheville N.C., I was exposed to a new and exciting form of abstract medium for me. Cold Wax. It's a medium used in oil painting for many purposes. I think its main intent was one of a finishing product. However: It makes a beautiful product when mixed with oil paints. This piece also has oil stick in it as well. Very much a "Mixed Media" in the "oil"painting branch of art expression.
